how can I make gfx like in another world?

[rednova]

Dear Friends:

The title is self explanatory. I would like to make vector grafix like in amiga's game
'another world' ?
Is there any amiga package that can let me do this ?
Any help is appreciated,

thank you !!!

Like these?  If you mean in AmosPro, you can always trace images with http://aminet.net/package/dev/amos/ArtCoder but the editor isn't very good plus it limits the number of vertexes to 8 for each polygon.  You can do more vertexes per polygon if you do a Gfxcall command to the areadraw function.

Dear Friend: Yes, that was the vector grafix I was looking for. However, I do not want them
for use in amospro, I just want to get the best amiga package to make this kind of grafix, but for amiga and not for amos.
What i really want, is to make standalone animations for amiga, using this kind of vector gfx (another world kind).
Any other ideas ?

Thanks !!!

You could use FantaVision to make animations but they don't save in a stand alone format.  It's an old Electronic Arts program for Amiga and some others.

If you'd like, I can make an updated ArtCoder-like program in AmosPro that would work similarly but doing animation with vectors would take a little bit more punch than I've got time to offer right now.

@sam

no prob, don't need you code a program. I just wanted to know if there is any program for amiga that will let me create gfx like in another world, to make standalone animation.
Maybe someone else knows.
BTW i am learning to use 'moviesetter', and is great to make standalone animations that fit into a single disk.
However I also wanted to find out if there is a way to make 'another world' kind of animation.
Anyone else knows ?
Moviesetter is superb, but I am also interested in making gfx like in another world.
Thanks !!!

I think MovieSetter generates a disk by putting a player onto each animation.  There are a number of 2D vector drawing programs for Amiga but I think FantaVision is the only 2D vector animation program that was worth anything.

I think FantaVision is a great program to use for making animations like this. My friend made his own South Park animation with it, and I've played around with it myself. It's easy to use and fun, you can add sounds to key frames as well as add brushes and background images like MovieSetter, but it also has vector animation with tweening and morphing.

Well, thanks for the tip. I do not really want to use fantavision because it won't let me make standalone anims.
I guess there is no way in amiga to make what I want (to make standalone vector gfx anim).
You answered my question.
Fortunately, moviesetter is super and it does what I need. There is no need for vector anims anymore.
Thank you !!!

Imagine3D allows you to create Vector style animations.

Fantavision FTW!  I always loved it from the day of its release!

A long, long time ago, there was Aegis Animator. This was designed to do Vector Graphics Animation. But it was verrry slow on a A500.

Maybe you want to use Flash?
